Clearwater, Nebraska: Goose Lake
situated in southern Holt County was
the first lake purchased by the state
for the purpose of a public fishing

purchased this lake the Clearwater
chapter has continually urged thej
state for improvements on the same.
The property is well fenced, stock
proof, and the same has been land
scaped and some 3000 trees were :
planted in the spring of 1927. Also

greatly changed the uppearance of the
lake. The state has sunk four arte

hud u man on the ground drilling for
deeper and better wells in the second j

ehapter bought an auto gate accord-,
ing to state specifications on the north

j the material, and the chapter the work
| free of charge. On November 27th
the state sent us between 10410 am)
11200 pickerel that average 13 inches
jin length and we released them in the
llake At the present time we are*
; working with the state to hav<> n

J stocked it will become one of the finest

O’NEILL MAY HAVE A
BROADCASTING STATION
O’Neill capitalists are making plans
to install a broadcasting station in
this city in the near future, with wat
tage enough to cover Holt county and
this immediate trade territory. Regu
lar daily programs will be broadcast
along with a reasonable amount of
advertising by the various wholesale
and retail institutions of the city.
If the present plans are carried out
the station will be located in the up
per part of the Golden hotel for the
present until it is fully determined
that the venture will pay its way.
The Frontier can see no reason why
O’Neill should not have a station as
it is located in a large territory; there
are no other stations near us.
Here’s hoping that the promoters
are successful in developing the ven
ture.
